So after trying to go sword/gun, and not liking it, I want to try out a bomber build. The setup I"m planning for gear atm is:
-volcanic demo set
-aegis/crest of almire/dread skelly shield
for weapons, I"ll probably have 3 slots open, and I can open a 4th if necessary. I plan to do a 2 bombs/1 gun or 2 bombs/1 sword setup. So far I'm set on getting a graviton vortex as my 1st bomb. So here are some things I'm wondering:
-with 3 slots open, going for a bomber build that will probably be equal parts support and aggro, would it be better to do 2 bomb/1sword or 2bomb/1gun?
-if I do 2 bomb/1 gun, I"ll probably settle for a hail driver as the gun. In that case, what should the 2nd bomb be (probably normal or piercing type damage, cuz the driver is elemental and the graviton is shadow right?)
-if I do 2 bomb/1 gun, I might have an issue with monsters that dodge (wolvers, devillites). Do I counter by setting down the vortex, then shooting up the monsters trapped inside?
-if I do 2 bomb/1 sword, what sword and bomb would do good in balancing with the vortex?
-if I open up a 4th slot, what setup should I do then?
-how heavy an investment would all this be / how rare are all these items to get?
Thanks in advance for the help guys!
do NOT take graviton as 1st bomb, that particular bomb is the most useless, but fun to use bomb out there, its ur last choice
u cant say in general x bomb x sword x gun, u need to specify in order to get an answer, it depends which bombs ur going to use, preferably u should have 1 dmg weapon either a good sword u can handle or a bomb with good radius and as many status inflicting support weapons as possible(shivermist and ash of agni are the most useful, but if ur getting a gun, get 1 with a different status inflict than ur bombs/swords)
the rarity doesnt matter, its a similar cost on all weapons
u seem to be definitely going with the graviton, just my experiences here
-when u place the bomb, get away from it as fast as possible, if u activate shield quickly itll save u too, if u activate it too late, the mobs will get shield knocked far away from ur graviton
-when u spam the bomb, be careful while holding it above ur head, the mobs in the previous black hole can still hit u and time it correctly to dmg them, else they will get sucked away from the previous bomb's 2nd explosion
-when u try to use a 2nd weapon to hit the monsters(preferably leviathan blade with good charge time!), it better be a charge attack, multiple hits will trigger the monsters to attack u and because of the whirls u might not be able to land the suspending 3rd hit on all of them
if u go with leviathan blade and graviton vortex, id suggest an ash of agni as 3rd weapon for dmg and great kiting or a shivermist buster for very good support or any blast bomb for fun(a real bomber should experience at least 1 of them :D)
